"Miss Cullen," I said, "I've been ungentlemanly and suspicious, and I'm about as ashamed of myself as a man can be and not jump into the Grand Cañon. I've not come to you to ask your forgiveness, for I can't forgive myself, much less expect it of you.
"Polly won't come with me; unkind of her, ain't it?" "Mr. Gammon," remarked the young lady with a severe glance, "I'll thank you not to be so familiar with my name. If you don't know any better, let me tell you it's very ungentlemanly." He rose, doffed his hat, bowed profoundly, and begged her pardon, in acknowledgment of which Polly gave a toss of the head.
She sat with her head leaning on her hand. 'Why don't you go and see Reardon? John asked of his mother. 'What would be the use? Perhaps he would tell me to mind my own business. 'By jingo! precisely what you would be doing. I think you ought to see him and give him to understand that he's behaving in a confoundedly ungentlemanly way. Evidently he's the kind of fellow that wants stirring up.
Occasionally, accompanied by proper officers, the convicts should be taken to the Italian Opera, or allowed to dance at Papanti's. The object would be so to refine their tastes that they should shrink from theft and murder, simply because they were ungentlemanly. Readmitted to society, these gentlemen would give tone to the upper classes. But Mr.

To begin with, your father has abused me in a most ungentlemanly manner." Jane Gladys got off the window sill and pointed her small finger at the door.

'Such ungentlemanly boys ought not to be allowed in the omnibus. 'Girls shouldn't be allowed in the 'bus, they are so stupid, said Fergus. 'That one -as cross as old Halfpenny -who was she, Val? 'Emma Norton! Up in the highest form! 'Well, she is a prig, and a tell-tale-tit besides; only Stebbing said if she did, her junior would catch it.

Looking back upon it I must suppose that my conduct during the next week or so would be condemned by most right-thinking people as ungentlemanly and even dishonourable. I have no inclination to defend it; and I could not affirm that, at the time, I loved honour more than Cynthia Lane.
